The Miami Marlins started the 2020 season on a high note after winning two out three games on the road against the Philadelphia Phillies. The Fish started the season with their first Opening Day win since 2014. It was also the first Opening Day win for the Marlins in the Bruce Sherman-Derek Jeter era.
The Phillies tied the series with a 7-1 win on Saturday in which the Phillies clubbed four home runs. The Marlins then had an opportunity to steal a series from a division rival with one of their most experienced pitchers. However, that did not end up happening.
